and coupling with 2 moles of a coupling constituent of the formula:

HQ IIIa

or a total of 2 moles of a mixture of two coupling components of the formulas: HQ + HQ.sub.1 IIIa IIIb

In the coupling with a single coupling component, there are obtained bisazo dyestuffs of formula I wherein Q.sub.1 is identical to Q. If in the coupling, a mixture of two different coupling constituents HQ and HQ.sub.1 is used, preferably an equimolar mixture of HQ and HQ.sub.1, there are obtained according to the invention bisazo dyestuffs of formula I wherein Q is different from Q.sub.1 in admixture with symmetrical bisazo dyestuffs. The symmetrical bisazo dyestuffs of formula I, wherein Q and Q.sub.1 are identical, are preferred.

The preferred halogen substituent for R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 is chlorine or bromine.

Suitable diamines of formula II are, for example:

M-phenylenediamine

P-phenylenediamine

Benzidine

2,2'-dichlorobenzidine

2,2'-dibromobenzidine

3,3'-dibromobenzidine

3,3'-dichlorobenzidine

3,3'-dimethylbenzidine

2,2'-dimethylbenzidine

3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine

2,2'-dimethoxybenzidine

2,2',5,5'-tetrachlorobenzidine

2,2'-dichloro-5,5'-dimethoxybenzidine

4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether

3,6-diaminodiphenyleneoxide

3,6-diamino-diphenylene sulfide

2,5-di-(p- or -m-aminophenyl)-oxydiazole (1,3,4)

2,5-di-(p- or -m-aminophenyl)-thiadiazole (1,3,4)

3,5-di-(p- or -m-aminophenyl)-triazole (1,2,4)

The diamines of formula II are tetra-azotized in a manner known per se. See, in this connection, Houben-Weyl: Methoden der Organischen Chemie, Band X/3 Stickstoffverbindungen, Verlag Georg Thieme, Stuttgart 1965, S.16-47 (Houben-Weyl: Methods of Organic Chemistry, Vol. X/3 Nitrogen Compounds, Georg Thieme publisher, Stuttgart 1965, pp. 16-47). The tetraazotized diamines are subsequently coupled in a manner known per se. Normally, tetra-azotization occurs in an aqueous medium or in an inorganic or organic acid at temperatures of 0.degree. to 10.degree.C. under the effect of nitrous acid. For producing nitrous acid, sodium nitrite and an acid, e.g., sulfuric acid or nitrosyl sulfuric acid, are customarily employed. In the tetraazotization of m-phenylenediamine and its derivatives, the known special methods (see Houben-Weyl, loc. cit., p. 40) are suitably employed, in that the tetra-azotization is undertaken, for example, at -5.degree.C. in a very large excess of strong hydrochloric acid with the drop-by-drop addition of a sodium nitrite solution.

Paraphenylene diamine and its derivatives may be easily tetra-azotized in concentrated sulfuric acid or in mixtures of sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid or of sulfuric acid and glacial acetic acid (see Houben-Weyl, loc. cit., p. 42).

With negatively substituted diamines, the tetra-azotization is appropriate in concentrated acids, such as concentrated sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid or nitric acid (see Houben-Weyl, loc. cit., p. 22).

For carrying out the coupling, the tetra-azo solution is combined with a solution or suspension of the coupling component. The coupling component may be dissolved or suspended in water acidified with sulfuric acid or also dissolved or suspended in a suitable inert, water-miscible solvent, such as methanol, ethanol, acetone, glacial acetic acid, dimethylformamide, m-methylpyridone, dioxan, sulfolan, glycol, glycol ether, acetonitrile and similar solvents. In some instances, it may be suitable to buffer the pH during coupling, e.g., by the addition of sodium acetate. In the coupling, there may also be added surface-active agents, emulsifiers, resin soaps and similar auxiliary agents customarily employed in the preparation of azo pigments.

For an acceleration of the coupling, there may also be added catalysts such as pyridine. The coupling may be carried out at temperatures of 0.degree. to 25.degree.C., for example.

In each instance, it is recommended to adjust the input speed of the tetrazonium salt solution to the coupling speed.

After coupling completion, the dyestuffs may be isolated by filtration and by washing with water and optionally purified with solvents. Following or even preceding the isolation, one may thermally influence particle size distribution, by heating a suspension of the pigment in water, organic solvents or mixtures of solvents. In such case, water may be present or absent and the liquid composition may be single or multiphase.

The coupling components, HQ and HQ.sub.1, required for the preparation of the bisazo dyestuffs of this invention may be synthesized from 2,6-dihydroxypyridine derivatives of the formula: ##SPC7##

Compounds of formula IV may be prepared in a known manner by the condensation of cyanoacetamide or malonic acid diamide with correspondingly substituted .beta.-ketocarboxylic acid esters analogous to the method described by Bobbitt and Scola, Journ. of Org. Chem. 25, 560. They may also be prepared in accordance with the various further methods described, for example, in the monograph, "Heterocyclic Compounds, Pyridine and Its Derivatives, Part 3" by Klingsberg. This monograph has appeared in the Arnold Weissberger series "The Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compunds", published by Interscience Publishers.

The 2,6-dihydroxypyridine derivatives of formula IV are converted in accordance with Bobbitt and Scola, Journal of Organic Chemistry, 25, 560, at 180.degree.C. by means of phosphorus oxychloride or analogously by means of phosphorus oxybromide into the corresponding 2,6-dichloro or 2,6-dibromo pyridine derivatives of the formula: ##SPC8##

wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 have the initially stated meaning and Hal is bromine or preferably chlorine.

Coupling components, HQ or HQ.sub.1, wherein the radicals ##EQU2## are the same (compounds of formula VII), may be prepared from compounds of formula V in accordance with the following reaction scheme: ##SPC9## wherein aa compound of formula V is reacted with an amine of formula VI in a molar ratio of at least 1 : 2 in a suitable solvent at temperatures of 20.degree. to 200.degree.C. Suitable solvents include, for example, alcohols, ether and hyrocarbons such as benzene, toluene and xylene. The alcohols used as solvents preferably have from 1 to 4 carbon atoms.

If compounds of formula V are reacted with the amine of formula VI in a molar ratio of 1 : 1, then a compound of formula VIII is obtained: ##SPC10##

This reaction is carried out at temperatures of 20.degree. - 100.degree.C., and preferably 20.degree. - 50.degree.C., in a suitable inert solvent. The exchange of the chlorine or bromine atom in the 6-position of the pyridine nucleus is determined by analysis of the NMR absorption spectra of the compounds obtained from formula VIII. The preferred inert solvents are alcohols with a chain length of 1 to 4 carbon atoms such as methanol, isopropanol and n-butanol.

The compound of formula VIII may be further reacted with an amine of formula IX to the desired coupling compound X as shown by: ##SPC11##

In this reaction, the reactants are heated to 100.degree. - 200.degree.C. and preferably 160.degree. - 180.degree.C., in an inert solvent, preferably an alcohol with a chain length of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, e. g., methanol, propanol, isobutanol or, in the event the physical properties allow it, in an excess of one of the reactants as the solvent.

The novel bisazo dyestuffs of formula I are yellow to violet pigments having good fastness to light and solvent fastness. Their properties, particularly particle size distribution, are dependent on the preparation conditions. These may be influenced by measures known from the literature, as already have been mentioned to some extent, but, in addition, also by mechanical processing such as milling with or without the addition of auxiliary milling materials so as to adapt the properties to particular purposes.

Of the dyes of general formula I those exhibit particularly good fastness properties, in particular fastness to light and specially good qualities from the utilization view-point, such as a good fastness to over-lacquering, which correspond to formula Ia. ##SPC12##

wherein each of R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 being hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, --C.sub.2 H.sub.4 OH, --C.sub.6 H.sub.5 ##SPC13##

and A is a radical of the formula ##SPC14##

In addition to these dyes of formula Ia those dyes of formula Ia are specially preferred in which A stands for a radical of the formula ##SPC15##

and in which R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 have the definition given in formula Ia.

Preferred compounds are also those of formula Ia wherein the substituents of R.sub.3 and R.sub.5 are identical and, consequently, correspond to the formula ##SPC16##

R.sub.3 and A having the meanings given in formula Ia and A standing preferentially for a radical of the formula ##SPC17##

The novel pigments may be employed, among other things, in textile printing, in lacquers, printing dyes and in the bulk dyeing of synthetics.

The lacquers under consideration are those which contain, for example, acrylates, melamine resins, urea formaldehyde, condensation products, alkyd resins or varnish. Color printing in which the novel pigments may be employed, for example, includes book printing, offset printing and textile printing. The bisazo dyestuffs of formula I may also be used advantageously for the pigment dyeing of textiles.

The synthetics, which may be dyed with the bisazo dyestuffs of formula I include, for example, polyvinyl chloride, polystyrene and caoutchouc.

Furthermore, the bisazo dyestuffs of formula I may also be employed for the spin dyeing of polymeric compositions from solutions, for example, of a xanthogenic cotton solution, or from melts, for example, of polyesters, cellulose acetate, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride and polyolefins.

With the novel brilliant pigments having a good color strength are achieved good fastnesses to light, oil, over-lacquering, over-spraying and migration in the printing, dyeing or lacquering produced thereby.

EXAMPLE 12

One part of the pigment prepared in accordance with Example 6 is finely ground with 10 parts boiled linseed oil on a three-roll mill. The printing ink prepared in this manner produces, on printing, red-violet prints with excellent brilliance and good light fastness. Similar results are achieved in employing the remaining pigments given in the examples, prints with the specified color hues being obtained.

Lacquerings with increased transparency are obtained if, for example, the pigments are milled in a ball mill with the addition, in a given case, of inorganic salts with the subsequent removal of these salts. Increased covering power may also be achieved by the heating of the pigments with water and/or organic solvents, for example.

EXAMPLE 13

A baking enamel mixture (95 parts) consisting of 67 parts coconut-oil resin, 17 parts urea formaldehyde resin and 16 parts ethylene glycol, is ground in a hopper mill with 8 parts of the pigment described in Example 7. The maroon colored lacquer thusly obtained, after burning in on metal sheets, cardboard or aluminum foil, produces maroon colored lacquerings with excellent over-spraying fastness. Similar results are achieved in using the remaining pigments, prepared in accordance with the examples, the color hues specified being obtained.

EXAMPLE 14

A mixture consisting of 70 parts polyvinyl chloride, 30 parts diisooctylphthalate and 1 part titanium dioxide is dyed in the customary manner with 0.5 parts of the pigment obtained in accordance with Example 1, in a set of mixing rollers heated to 160.degree.C. There is obtained a bluish-red substance from which foils or profiles, for example, may be prepared. The dyeing is distinguished by intense brilliancy, as well as good plasticizer fastness. Similar results are obtained when employing the remaining pigments described in the examples.
